Donald Trump walks, as his criminal trial over charges that he falsified business records to conceal money paid to silence porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016 continues, in New York City, US, May 7, 2024.NEW YORK — Porn star Stormy Daniels described her 2006 encounter with Donald Trump in unflattering terms at his criminal trial on Tuesday , testifying she tried not to think about the sex while it took place and feared it would become public.
"Who do you understand Mr. Trump to be referring to as horseface and sleazebag in this post?" prosecutor Susan Hoffinger asked her as she displayed a social media post by Trump.Daniels' testimony provided fodder for Trump's lawyers to seek a mistrial, arguing that details, such as her statement that Trump did not wear a condom, served no purpose other than to inflame the jury. Justice Juan Merchan denied that request but agreed that some of her testimony ran too far afield.
Trump, the Republican candidate for president again this year, did not react as he watched from the defence table. He has pleaded not guilty to charges of falsifying business records to cover up a US$130,000 hush money payment to Daniels and denies having sex with Daniels. Wearing a black outfit and black glasses, Daniels testified that she worked in strip clubs and pornography after a childhood in which her mother was often gone for days at a time.She said Trump greeted her at his hotel suite wearing satin pyjamas. She said she grew annoyed by Trump's frequent interruptions and asked him: "Are you always this arrogant and pompous?"Trump then dared Daniels to spank him with a magazine and she obliged.
She testified she was eager to collect before the 2016 election because she was worried he would not pay her if he won.
